II is said that young lady upon
finding an old button shoe may forsee
the number of years to clapse before
her marriage by counting the number
Of buttons. II is, therefore, an act of
kindness rs well rs economy to cut OF
the buttons before throwing away an
old shoe; and by careful handling one
shoe may make many fainting hearts
to palp with joy. This Is dingy old
world ut best, and these little acts of
kindness should not be forgotten In the
business stampede.

ratified and declined TO bulge, except

In n great many counties of Iowa the |
farmers derive great benciits from insti. |
tutes held in the leisure season of win.
ter, where they exchange ideas and give
the results OF practical work and exper-
iments in both stock raising and agri- |
culture. They are conducted with very
little expense and are OF great value.
We believe similar institution would |
find n great many ready and willing TO
participate IL taken in hand by some of
the leading agriculturists of this county.
1t would certainly prove most profit. |

work is less urgent on tho farm.

The Audubon Roller Mill Is repre-.
sented In our columns this week. The
mill Is now in full operation with the
exception Of occasional idleness, neces-
sited by an inadequate supply of water.
The product Of the mill is now on sale
at all Of the grocery and provision
houses, and wherever IL has been used
has given unqualified satisfaction. We
hope the citizens Of the community
will express preference in buying for
the home industry thereby showing
appreciation Of the enterprise of the
men who have located here, asking only
support when their flour was put on the
market. Try the Audubon Roller
Mills flour.
